Notes

'Elle' rose (Rosa 'Elle') is a shrub for borders, cottage gardens, cut flowers, and containers. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. Pink blend flowers are fragrant and open from early to late summer. Bees visit the blooms. Alain A. Meilland bred it in 1981.

Pairs well with Cheyenne Spirit echinacea, Little bluestem, and Gladiator ornamental onion.
